Halloween Wreaths!

I know, I know... It's not Halloween. But what can I say? October is my favorite month and Halloween is the BEST holiday.

These wreaths are not something I can take credit for, although I wish I was this incredible! I have this absolutely amazing hair client (and friend), Sandy. She seriously is the craftiest person I know and I love her amazing wreaths. She made these for her daughter/daughters-in-law last October. I had her email me the pictures and I am so excited to share them with you! I am hoping that I can make one as awesome as these this October. Take a look!

In order to get everything to stay on, she uses hot glue and wire. She was the one that taught me the amazing hot glue technique... Go to the D.I. and get an old pan. Melt glue in the pan and dip the entire ornament in the glue and attach to the wreath. This works so much better because the glue that you first put on isn't cold by the time you get to the bottom half!

Aren't these skulls absolutely amazing?? They are all great, but this is my favorite! She said that she always shops after the holiday is over to get the great prices. Then she just uses spray paint and glitter to make the ornaments exactly what she wants.

Thank you Sandy for sharing your amazing wreaths with us! And we need to have a wreath party! :)
